That's exactly how it works. Racers must certify that their car and credentials meet the necessary requirements. Read the paragraph on the tech card where you sign your name.

Someone comes thru tech and when asked he says 10.50 because he has no cage or -5 suit and the car runs 9.50 or faster.

I don't know why it is in the slightest way controversial to suggest that rules should have the same standards for everyone, at any event.
